Spiritual Awakening: Celebrate Life By Lifting People Up

Spiritual Awakening: Celebrate Life By Lifting People Up

 

I saw this quote and I immediately thought of the people that will be honored on Saturday 3/24/12 at The Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Awards and how they are lifting up the people in the communities where they live, work and play. Each honoree has an amazing story and by attending the event you will have a chance to meet them and be inspired by them and be lifted by the experience. When we lift up others we also lift ourselves for we celebrate life by lifting people up. Think about it  after a big football game the winning team usually carries a coach off the field on their shoulders. I am figuratively lifing our honorees up on my shoulders to show tem respect and admiration.

 Don Shula celebrates life and his 317 career victory with his players.

Spiritual Awakening: How to Quiet The Mind and Be Productive

As I sat by my pool today reading Rev. Dr. Dee Adio-Moses’ book You’re enough I was visited by an iguana who needed to take a break from his scampering. At first I was startled as I was thinking about a passge from the book about GOD being in us and how you can listen to the small voice whispering to you and guiding you. As I began to quiet my mind the messages aboiut being productive started to flow and I thus my inspiration for today’s entry.

Spiritual Awakening: How to Quiet The Mind and Be Productive

I have often stated that when the mind is quiet you can receive the messages that can lead you to be productive. A few ways to quiet the mind are:

1: Find a quiet place and lay on your back close your eyes and just breathe- This is difficult at first as we are so programmed to rush from one task to the next. We all tend to have what we perceive to be busy lives, however we are a priority and by finding a quiet place to lay down and breathe will help us to improve our health and well being. I usually lay back say GOD is good God is great Ave Marie a few times as I breathe and then I stop and just breathe ignoring any thoughts that come into my head. I do this for about 15 minutes and then I pick up with the task I was working on and move forward in a positive direction.

2: Lay down on your couch after putting on some soothing music or a deep meditation CD and just breathe while listening to the sounds and blocking everything else out.

3: Sit in a  with your barefeet(or with socks) touching the ground and your palms open to the sky and just allow everything to flow.

Spiritual Awakening: Celebrities That  Meditate

Wynonna Judd claims that meditation and quieting the mind has led to her getting healthier, being happier, and increasing her creativity.

 Robin Williams, who is known for being very wound up and full of energy says he even finds ways to quiet his mind as it helps him to comeback refreshed and more creative

Spiritual Awakening: Living On A Prayer

Spiritual Awakening: Living On A Prayer

Each time I hear Bon Jovi’s Living On A Prayer and hear “We Will Make It I Swear, Living On A Prayer,” I think yes we will all make it as long as we continue on our path to be a shining light to others.

Having faith and living on  a prayer daily can enhance your personal and professional life. Some ways to live on a prayer are:

1: Say a gratitude prayer every morning when you awake and every night before you sleep

2: Breathe when in the face of adversity

3: Read quotes, bible verses, books that enhance your experience

4: Encourage others

5: Affirm that you are special

One of my favorite prayers follows. What is one of your favorite prayers?

Spiritual Awakening: Overcoming Fear: What is Your Deepest Fear?

Spiritual Awakening: Overcoming  Fear

As I watched the movie Coach Carter and heard him ask what is your deepest fear I began to think, what is it that is holding you back from maximizing your mission? I then thought of the following Marianne Williamson “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

 

 

I have had the opportunity to meet many people who have put the fear they had aside annd decided to go for it. One individual that I met recently and applaud and celebrate is Anissa Pfannenstiel who is doing amazing work in the community.

Spiritual Awakening: Inspiration Leads To Fruition

Spiritual Awakening: Inspiration Leads To Fruition

 Once you are inspired it is important to act on that inspiration and allow the inspiration to bring your vision to fruition. There will be many trials and tibulations. There will be doubters. There will be successes. There will be supporters. In the end when you are deep into reflection you will realize that it was all well worth it. Think about it it is your vision, your inspiration that is bringing thing to fruition. Have you sat down and wrote out intentions and planned to take some action on those intentions?

One of my visions is fast coming to fruition where as on March 24, 2012 I will be bring people together for The Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Awards.

Spiritual Awakening: Staying Alive

Spiritual Awakening: Staying Alive

In 1983 John Travolta starred in a movie Staying Alive. As I watched this video I started to really listen to the lyrics and one thing stood out the lyric “I am far from over.”

As thought about that lyric I began to think how all of us are far from over that we are all on a path to create a better life for oursleves and those around us. We are all staying live by being of service and value to others. When I conceived the idea of The Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Award I lookked for and I found people who are keeping dreams alive and helping other to stay alive by creating a nuturing and encouraging community. I was amazed by how many people are helping others to stay alive.

http://youtu.be/f7oEdmZiMsU This link will bring you to a video Staying Alive by The Bee Gees. Everytime I hear this song I get pumped up and I am reminded of my purple parachute pants.Even back than I was interested in helping people to stay alive and helping them to find their passion. What is is that wakes you up and helps you to stay alive?

Spiritual Awakening: Are You A Dreamweaver or Dream Stealer

Are You A Dreamweaver or Dream Stealer ?

How many times have some one approached you with their vision and you thought wow what a concept or that will never work?  How many times have you verbalized your feelings not realizing the impact it would have on that person. Do you consider yourself a dreamweaver, a person who encourages and uplifts people when they share their dreams with you regardless of how far fetched it may seem, or are you a dream stealer, someone who puts down the idea and finds all the reasons it won’t work. As a business and life advisor I like to be a dreamweaver and help people follow their vision. Being a dreamweaver has many rewards one of which is seeing the progress and growth in someone you helped with their vision.

One of my favorites by Langston Hughes that I use often on my radio show, which can be heard on Monday from 7-8 PM EST at www.blogtalkradio.com/thirdeyeradio1, where we talk about emowerment and inspiration with our guests, if you can not tune in live all the shows are archived. I also use this to be a dreamweaver on my Tantalizing Tuesday Teleclasses, which can be heard at 1-605-477-2100 pin 131099 from 7-8 PM EST, where again I have guests that are dreamweavers helping other people excel talk about a myriad of subjects. I am one who walks his talk as I consider myself a dreamweaver.

Spiritual Awakening: SING YOUR SONG!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Sing Your Song

This blog entry was inspired by Abba’s song, Thank You For The Music. As I listened to the lrics I began to ask what is the song you want the world to hear and be thankful to you for singing? What positive message will you be able to deliver to the world? I began to think of the songs that I listen to for inspiration. I have my top 10 ranked later in this entry. We all have a song to sing and I encourage you to sing yours loud so the entire world will hear and be moved by you to take action. It is when you sing your song that you shine your light and inspire and empower others to do the same.

 Gloria Gaynor’s I Will Survive has become an anthem for many to sing their song.

Spiritual Awakening: Finding Your Song

I use the word song to encompass all talents that you posses. How do I find my song(purpose)  is a question I am asked so many times when I am helping people with media and marketing relations. Each of us has a calling( a song) and once we find that calling great things begin to unfold. Whatever you are being called to do at this moment to be a shining light and to sing your song embrace it and watch the greatness unfold. There are many ways to find your song.

1: Answer What do I Enjoy?

2: Ask How Can My Song Be of Value and Service?

3: Who Am I Surrounding Myself With?

For me I enjoy helping people get the word out so I became The Spiritual Eemcee Maximizing Your Message. I provide a service taht everyoen with a business needs, the ability to get media attention. I surround myself with others that support my mission, such as providing a great event with The Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Awards, which will be held on 3/24/12 at Unity Church in Pompano Beach from9 AM – 4 PM. MY song is one of hope and inspiration. Through my ability to plan projects, bring people together, and help kids with cancer I have been able to further the mission and sing my song.

Your song when sung will lift others up and as a result you will be lifted

I found my song when I looked deep inside and realized that I am a child of God and God’s Purpose for me is to Help Others Excel. Once I accepted this purpose things in my life began to change for the good. There have been challenges and I have been scared but I have been singing my song loudly wherever I go. I have wondered where money will come from, and then I remembered if I sing my song the money will come and it has eachtime I have sung my song.

When I need inspiration and motivation  I look to quotes and pictures and then I continue to sing my song.

Spirituality: Stepping Into Your Power

Spirtuality: Stepping Into Your Power

I am often asked JDOGG when did you realize that spirituality meant stepping into your power. My answer is I have been steeping into my power and honing my spirituality all my life. Some examples include:

. Being on The Skipper Chuck Show after I used my power to raise funds for The Muscular Dystrophy Association

. Winning The John H. Armbruster Award from The U.S. Jaycees as a Top 5 Jaycee in America as a result of stepping into my power to serve as a living example of Jaycees Creed

. Receiving The 2008 Hope Award from The South Palm Beach Unit of The American Cancer Society for my powerful dedication to their mission
